Treatment of Sewage by Electrocoagulation and the Effect of High Current Density

Treatment of sewage water by electrocoagulation with high cell current densities (605 A/m2, 908 A/m2, 1211 A/m2, 1513 A/m2 and 1816 A/m2) using stainless steel, iron and aluminum electrodes were studied. High current densities applied were very effective for the removal of COD, BOD and SS in 30 minu...
